From the celebrated Cuban bar Cienfuegos, owned by the co-owner of the award-winning Death & Co., dubbed America’s Best Cocktail Bar, comes this spirited collection of 100 recipes that celebrate Cuba's rich cocktail history and culture. Featuring classics such as the Daiquiri, Floridita, and Papa Doble, as well as modern craft concoctions, including the Cienfuegos Shake, Isla de Tesoros, and Jardin de Flores, Cuban Cocktails offers more than just a gathering of recipes. It captures the tropical elegance and unfiltered energy of old Cuba, brimming with beautiful, evocative images of the drinks and the places where they came to life. Sidebars shed fascinating light on the country's legendary bars and nightclubs and the famous bartenders and entrepreneurs who ran them, while quotes and fun facts give a tantalizing taste of the once-forbidden Caribbean island.
¡Bienvenidos a Cienfuegos!
About the Authors
Ravi DeRossi began his career as an artist but soon set his sights on New York nightlife. Ravi DeRossi's first venture, the Bourgeois Pig, was a press favourite. Then he co-founded Death & Co and, shortly thereafter, Desnuda Cevicheria. Mayahuel, his tequila and mescal bar, won the Best New Cocktail Bar Award at Tales of the Cocktail.
Jane Danger began her bartending career at CBGB before moving to Death & Co. She consults on, and contributes to, cocktail menus and her work has appeared in 'New York' magazine, 'Time Out New York', 'New York Post', 'New York Times' and elsewhere.
Alla Lapushchik assisted with the opening of the Bourgeois Pig while studying at New York University, before moving to Mayahuel, Death & Co, Desnuda Cevicheria and 124 Rabbit Club.
Gabi Porter is the photographer whose work regularly appears in the pages of the New York Post. She specialises in photos at bars of all kinds and has made a career of travelling the world and drinking for work.
